For those that dont know/haven't heard of the RC8, your probably looking at the vid and thinking "Huh?....So what?".

This is the first time I've seen anything other than "mock-ups" of the new superbike from KTM. It's defo the road version, you can see the headlight.

And a pic:-

Maybe my next bike buying decision wont be so easy now after all once this thing gets released.

New Aprilia V4 or KTM RC8?.

Hmmm. :cool:

I read about it in Bike mag (can't remember which edition now...). Looks great. :cool:

I still think the most sexual bike is the MV Agusta SPR F4. :cool:

Both very nice, on looks alone though, Id go for freefallers.

I think the KTM has too many straight lines, A bike should have curves and be more organic rather than something that looks like a piece of origami.

I'm sure technically it's a great bike, but the styling sucks.

Very nice, stil not as boootiful as any of the SRADS or NC30s
